what’s it to you that I spend all my time thinking about fictional couples

I feel like there’s a Peter Townsend joke to be made but I’m not smart enough to think of one

It’s hard for me to have sympathy for Abby and the fireflies bc I don’t believe her dad would’ve been able to make a cure. I’m no medical professional but from what I understand you can be a neurosurgeon or a virologist - not both. Vaccines and medicine also require a lot of other medical professionals involved to develop, including microbiologists, immunologists, etc and this is specifically a mycology issue as we saw in the first season. Without the qualified people involved, it’s hard for me to suspend my disbelief that Abby’s father would’ve done anything worthwhile after cutting Ellie’s brain open, which is already stupid to start with. You have one (1) source to finding a potential cure and your first move is to performing a fatal surgery? Why not take her blood first - a renewable source???? She only has one brain. Were they going to duplicate her brain to mass produce a cure? I know naughty dog said if Joel hadn’t done all that, then a cure would’ve been made but I don’t buy it 🤷🏻‍♀️
